The Danube Cycle Path is one of the most beautiful cycle routes in Europe. The entire route is just under 1,300 kilometers long and runs from the source of the Danube to Budapest. Is that too long for you? No problem, we'll show you our four favorite stages in Baden Württemberg. Our section of the Danube Cycle Path begins at the source in Donaueschingen and winds its way on four daily stages through the impressive Danube mountain region and along the foothills of the Swabian Alb to Ulm.

Most of the time, the cycle path runs directly along the banks of the Danube. Almost without gradients you cycle past picturesque natural landscapes, through peaceful valleys, mighty fortresses or romantic monasteries and pass through such beautiful cities as Ulm or Sigmaringen.

Thanks to the well-developed paths and the easy route, the individual stages are really suitable for anyone who is looking for cycling pleasure. And four days is a nice length to get a taste of multi-day cycling. The good infrastructure along the Danube cycle path is also pure pleasure. Accommodation is available everywhere, so you can choose from guesthouses, beautiful hotels or inns to suit your taste. Even youth hostels and camping sites can often be found close to the stage destinations. The cycle path is also well developed in terms of gastronomy and you can look forward to a tasty meal in one of the numerous restaurants and cafés after each section of the route.

No matter if spring, summer or autumn, the Danube cycle path is always beautiful to ride and a very special experience in every season.
